Alexis Sanchez

[Jack Hackett]

We might have to soon see mate. I think the business done in the next 2 weeks by the top clubs will determine our chances.
I think if the window had to shut last night, we would have as good a chance as any at making top 4.

However, will Spurs get a couple of players in & can they adapt to Wembley? Will Chelsea get who they want in & manage to turn things around as they look like they could be on the verge of a mini implosion. Will Liverpool sell Coutinho & if so will they be able to strengthen the team adequately? Will we lose Sanchez & replace him, will we try & strengthen other areas ie defence or midfield?

I suppose my logic comes from the fact that with Sanchez last season we only managed to finish 5th. If Lacazette proves to be a good replacement were Sanchez to leave, why would we finish higher? I take the point that other teams for various reasons might be weaker and as you say there will still be some transfer activity to change the picture but from where I'm sitting losing Sanchez is likely to mean no top four.

Draxler would not be an awful replacement for Sanchez at Arsenal...

Strange how you can still get 9/2

Yeah, should be 20/1

Why? Nothing suggests he's being sold

Interesting....Wenger has tried to sign him in the past.

Sanchez to PSG in swap for Draxler might be acceptable, of course it's probably all bollox

If a bid really is imminent that would normally make the price tumble, even for a short time!

He'd be a huge upgrade on Coutinho at Liverpool.

If that's true it could also mean Mbappe to PSG, which means City will bid for Sanchez
